Trimble Adds Indoor Mapping Tool to its Suite

While there are not images of the new product called The Indoor Mobile Mapping Solution (expected to be widely available in Q2) it sounds like the company's version of PenBay Media's indoor mapping robots. (I'm not sure at all from the collateral if its self propelling or if someone walks around with the device. I've asked Trimble.) The device uses a mix of active and passive sensors.

Hey Adena, this platform is a total game-changer! It's capable of rapidly capturing full 3D LiDAR data (in real world coordinates) and spherical imagery as part of a mobile survey workflow, and yes it's a 'push' device. PenBay recently completed a large survey for the City of Philadelphia using this platform, and the resulting interior space data is truly the nicest i've ever seen. We're very excited to be working closely with Trimble to bring this new platform into our area of Facility GIS expertise, both for Public Safety and Real Property customers.

"Push device" means what? You push it? Or is it, like your devices, a robot? Sorry, I'm still not getting a picture of this device.

You push it, like a golf bag tote or an office mail cart.
